So...That was brief.
Yesterday was not good. Apparently, even though no one thoroughly trained me about a good 50% of the job, they decided I made too many mistakes. WTF. So, I am again among the unemployed, just two weeks before Jess joins the ranks too.
*sigh*
I was...well, shattered wouldn't be too strong of a word. I felt like I was finally getting the hang of the job, and understanding what they wanted from me, and bam. Done.
According to the bosses, "the doctors aren't allowed to make mistakes, so they expect the same from employees." Bullshit. They trained for YEARS to not make those mistakes, and they're not making under $15/hr.
I hate this feeling. Like I'm a total failure at the worst possible time, and I don't know what I could have done to change it.
To give you an idea of one of their issues, part of my job was to verify insurance on patients. They handed me the sheets, and showed me how to use the online database. Okay, good. I could do that.
Then, I'd get called on the carpet because I wasn't filling out the sheets enough. WTF? You never told me that I needed to do anything but sign and date the damn things. I can give you more info, but you kinda have to tell me you want it!
I'm not sorry that I won't have to deal with the job and the idiot bosses, but god, I'm terrified of being unemployed again. I was just starting to feel like I was contributing again. Spent most of yesterday sobbing like a two year old, just wondering why me?
I came in early, I worked late, and I was willing to learn new things. Unfortunately, new things have a learning curve, something they weren't willing to give me. They taught me a complicated system to create the doctors lists for in hospital patients that involved two different computers, and three types of software. Showed me how to do it twice, and supervised me the first...maybe two times? And not that heavily, more like vaguely watching over my shoulder for the first ten minutes, then going off to chat with their buddies. And then, after doing it for a total of 13 times, they fired me for making errors.
God, this sucks. I will find something better, I know. But right now, I just hate everything.
